All new items

[Alcide]

Monsters are dropping items? Who is the madman who created such unrealistic system?
There has not been a half-decent game in history where monsters dropped gear!

uh uh here comes mr. Sarcasm.

The fact that it has been done in every other MMO is irrelevant, the system we had with the previous NM was something great, it involved the crafters too in the NM hunt and it made it possible to HQ or HY end game gear.
I'm not against NM dropping finished items, but to me it seems more plausible to see a bow, a shirt, or a belt dropped by a humanoid NM than by a slug, can you argue that? >.> I would have liked much better if with this patch there was NM dropping both finished items and materials, I just hope they don't have the intention to totally cut out the crafter from NM hunts
